How about the 70s vintage aluminum framed portlights? I understand I will need new rubber inserts (Catalina direct has been suggested, but not sure if there is a source in Canada?), but is Dow 795 also suitable for the frame to deck seal?
I'm thinking I will fill the void between the deck and liner with epoxy, after stuffing a foam gasket around the joint and inward about 3/4" to contain the epoxy, so there is a stiffer surface. From the factory there were wooden shims and a few gobs of epoxy or similar, but most of the void is wide open. I know I could upgrade to newer portlights, or maybe try to go frameless, but want to keep the look of the original if I can make it work well. I was thinking of buffing the frames to a shine, although not sure how long it would last... -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto On Sat, May 16, 2020 at 3:37 PM Peter Cowenhoven via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Tom, > > > Same concept here and this guy is a professional....I think. > > > https://youtu.be/MQyjxVUskd8 > > > > Landfall 35 > > Westbrook, CT > > > Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android > <https://go.onelink.me/107872968?pid=InProduct&c=Global_Internal_YGrowth_AndroidEmailSig__AndroidUsers&af_wl=ym&af_sub1=Internal&af_sub2=Global_YGrowth&af_sub3=EmailSignature> > > On Sat, May 16, 2020 at 6:15 PM, Peter Cowenhoven via CnC-List > <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > _______________________________________________ > > Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
